AZARGA URANIUM CORP. (TSX:AZZ) (“Azarga Uranium” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company has identified additional uranium mineralization at its initial development priority, the Dewey Burdock in-situ recovery (“ISR”) uranium project in South Dakota (the “Dewey Burdock Project”). The Company has identified this mineralization through its continued analysis of historical data owned by the Company (the “Data Set”) and the evaluation of revised ISR cutoff criteria, consistent with other producing ISR projects in nearby Wyoming.

Highlights of the additional uranium mineralization at the Dewey Burdock Project includes:

107 mineralized drill holes with 111 intercepts equal to or exceeding a 0.2 grade-thickness (GT) cutoff using a .02% grade cutoff with an average eU308 grade of 0.105% and an average thickness of 5.5 feet

Provides further indication that the resource trends head west towards the Company’s Dewey Terrace Project

Indicates the potential expansion of the Dewey Burdock Project resource to the north and the south within the NRC License boundary

“We are very excited that our analysis of the Data Set and the evaluation of revised ISR cutoff criteria has identified additional uranium mineralization at the Dewey Burdock Project. The newly identified uranium mineralization indicates the potential to increase uranium resources at the Dewey Burdock Project. Further, to this point, the analysis of the Data Set and the revised ISR cutoff criteria has only focused on the Dewey area of the project, which represents approximately 40% of the current resource estimate. As we continue our review of the Data Set, we expect that further uranium mineralization will be identified at the Burdock area of the project. Additionally, the Burdock area of the project contains substantially more historical drilling than the Dewey area,” said John Mays, Chief Operating Officer.

The following table provides a detailed summary of the results for the 107 mineralized drill holes with 111 intercepts that equal or exceed a 0.2 GT cutoff using a .02% grade cutoff:

The technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in NI 43-101 and was reviewed by John Mays, P.E., Chief Operating Officer for the Company and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101.

The Data Set includes historical drilling information that has been reviewed by the Company’s geological team, as well as 91 exploratory drill holes completed by the Company in a previous exploration campaign. The Company’s review of the records and information within the Data Set reasonably substantiate the validity of this information; however, the Company cannot directly verify the accuracy of the historical data, including the procedures used for sample collection and analysis. Therefore, the Company encourages investors not to place undue weight on these results.

The Company’s current resource estimate and preliminary economic assessment dated April 21, 2015, with an effective date of January 29, 2015, for the Dewey Burdock Project use a cutoff grade of 0.05% and GT of 0.5; whereas, the intercepts identified above utilize a cutoff grade of 0.02% eU3O8 and GT of 0.2, which is consistent with other producing ISR projects in nearby Wyoming.

About Azarga Uranium Corp.

Azarga Uranium is an integrated uranium exploration and development company that controls six uranium projects, deposits and prospects in the United States of America (South Dakota, Wyoming and Colorado) and the Kyrgyz Republic. The Dewey Burdock Project, which is the Company’s initial development priority, has received its NRC License and draft Class III and Class V Underground Injection Control (“UIC”) permits from the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the Company is in the process of completing other major regulatory permit approvals necessary for the construction of the Dewey Burdock Project, including the final Class III and Class V UIC permits from the EPA.
